The aim of the conference "The second generation Eurocodes: what is new and why?" is to present the opportunities offered by the Second Generation Eurocodes to decision-makers in- and outside the EU, industry associations, engineers, architects, designers, specifiers and other key stakeholders in the construction industry. The event will focus on the next generation Eurocodes and the technical advances they bring.
